Just about every time J.D. Vance — the most unpopular vice presidential nominee in American history — opens his mouth, he ignites a firestorm of criticism and likely shaves another point off the Republican presidential ticket’s polling numbers.
On Sunday, in an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Vance admitted that he and Donald Trump made up a baseless and racist story about Haitian immigrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.
“If I have to create stories so that the American media actually has to pay attention to the suffering of American people, then that’s what I’m going to do,” said Vance, a U.S. Senator representing Ohio.
Ironically, Vance’s attempt to point out imagined “suffering” has led to actual suffering by his own constituents.
Republican VP candidates are raping Ohio’s children.
Oh that’s made up? Doesn’t matter because it brings attention to a very important issue.
I’ll bet he also made up the story about not fucking a couch.
Some stories just sound more believable than others.
He thinks it’s okay to make up harmful stories because the late night comedians won’t leave the couch thing alone. What a maroon.
Maybe they’d leave it alone if he left the couches alone.
I wonder if this is just damage control for Trump? JD is pure slime, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he is just being thrown under the bus on this one, since it seems to be sticking as the dumbest part of the debate.
Vance posted the lie days before Trump lost his damn mind in the debate.
It might have been both of them, but Vance was way out front of it.
Nah let him cook (himself). If they swap him for someone else things might actually go better for Trump.
Resign from the senate.
Rather than just going back to that job after the campaign.
This campaign is literally zero cost for him as it stands. He’s a senator and will continue being a senator if he loses.
He should be forced to resign for things he’s done and admitted doing publicly.
Fair point
Resigning requires feeling shame for your actions. Vance has absolutely no shame.
Keep in mind that his private communications have leaked. He talked about what a monster Trump is for making immigrants feel unwelcome and unsafe.
Vance is not like Trump. Trump was raised to be a monster and not intelligent enough to question anything. Vance, OTOH, is smart enough to know better. He chose to be this person. He willingly, voluntarily sold his soul to the MAGA devil. That’s why looking at him and listening to him makes people’s skin crawl. There was a person in there once who was forcibly evicted in favor of a monster.

Thank you!
It was a public tweet, it’s all over the news…

Thank you!
Kind of want this limp dick idiot to stick around. The more damage he does the funnier and better it is for all of the sane(ish) people in our country.
When confronted with his assertion that he created a story, Vance — after a long pause of on-air silence — backpedaled, saying he “created the American media focusing on it,” and continued to insist that the story came from “first-hand accounts,” which has been proven false.
Where is this video? I really want to see his facial expression during this long pause
But no calls for Trump to resign?
Who would he even be replaced with?
I hear the headless body of Spiro Agnew is on the shortlist.
Rudy Giuliani
Honestly, I wonder if Trump just wants to pick people who are not to famous so he can keep all the attention on himself.
Who would he even be replaced with?
Whoever sucks up to Trump enough on the day.
Laura Loomer it is, then. Up to, off, same.
Sucks up, sucks off… is there a difference?
The skeleton of abraham lincoln.
That would take over the news cycle nicely.
I didn’t know Vance until he was picked as running mate. My list of people with punchable face keeps getting longer.
Why are we giving Trump an excuse to drop his failure of a running mate?
I thought the calls were for Vance to resign from the the Ohio Senator position.
Right? I say let them keep the anchor offboard the sinking ship. Vance has been an embarrassment from the beginning and it’s funny to see them take his Ls.
What a day…
Any lawyers calling the schools parents and trying to to get a class action civil suit against them? I think all the families having to suffer because of the admitted lies, should be a good payout for some lawyers willing to do the leg work.
